Upload Recurring Transactions in Bulk

After you register for recurring payments in bulk, you can upload the recurring transactions in bulk as described in this section.

Schedule Recurring Debits (new):
You can now schedule recurring debits for future date by passing the debit_date field as another column in the YYYY-MM-DD format in the bulk upload file. You should enable this feature to schedule recurring debits. Contact your key account manager to get it enabled.

Prerequisites

Download the sample file as in the below procedure (Step 1 to 4) and update it to include the data to be uploaded.
Ensure that all mandatory fields in the file are filled with the correct details. The columns in the CSV file for upload are described in the following table (Expandable Text):

Description of Columns in the CSV file for uploading transactions in bulk

Column Name	Field Type (Mandatory/ Optional)	Character Limit	Description

debit_date	Optional	10	The date on which you want this transaction to be charged. Format: YYYY-MM-DD. If left blank, the transaction will be processed immediately as usual.

Ensure that your bulk upload files are in the CSV format, as this is the only supported file type.
Each batch can contain up to 1,00,000 records (approximately), which is the maximum number of records processed in a single batch.
You can schedule a transaction for a future T+1 date or any date up to 3 month in advance.
You cannot schedule a transaction for a date more than 3 month from today — such rows will be rejected/marked as failed with an appropriate error.
If you don't provide a debit date, the transaction is processed right away.
